idle-timeout -> The man page says takes an integer, but is defined as a string. However, I think the man page for this parameter is incorrect, and in fact it takes a possible string as defined in the back-meta/async manual pages for this same parameter.

I don't see this. The man page says "<time>". It looks correct to me.
Wouldn't it be better to consequently convert time strings such as 1d15h5s to integer seconds during migration of static config to dynamic config? IMO for LDAP-on-the-wire those values should always be integer representing seconds (or milli-seconds if needed).
I mean back-config content is meant to be machine-processable and cleaner syntax would reduce unneeded complexity.
